Martin Custom Shop Willcutt Excluisve Dreadnought 41 Style Adirondack/Guatemalan Rosewood (298)

The Martin Custom Shop Willcutt Exclusive Dreadnought 41 Style pairs a premium Grade 8 Adirondack spruce top with premium Guatemalan rosewood back and sides for a powerful, complex voice with exceptional headroom. Golden Era forward-shifted scalloped Adirondack bracing gives the guitar strong projection, clear note separation, and a lively response across the entire dynamic range. Elegant Style 41 appointments—including perimeter abalone, a Style 45 abalone rosette, reduced hexagon fingerboard inlays, and gold Grover Sta-Tite tuners—give this dreadnought a refined Custom Shop presentation. With its comfortable GE Modified Low Oval neck, satin neck finish, and classic long-scale dreadnought platform, this Willcutt Exclusive is built for commanding flatpicked rhythm, articulate lead work, and rich acoustic accompaniment.
